Attachment Parenting Lactavist still in wonder at the beautiful creatures that sprung forth from my body on May 26, 2004, June 27, 2007, May 22, 2010, and November 25, 2012. Hopefully I'll get back to writing and art photography soon but seeing as it took me more than 7 months to add my 3rd kid's birth to that list (and 14 weeks to add my 4th), don't hold your breath!

Instigator (another original "poem")

When I was youngthe great big Theycalled me an Instigatorslur-like and slanderousas if I would amount toNothing and there was w real problem with that.

I have grown beyond themAnd embrace my instigationpersonification arms thrown open to the universe I let myself inand stir up trouble that needs some stirring. I am the Official Nobody and gleefully fulfill my role.

I have foundEverything Essentialin my Nothingness. Perhaps not comfort for myself(and surely discomforting for others) but always Instigating Progressing

My understanding is that Instigators are the ones who get really important things done.

I've got civil rights on my mind since I finally got the CD with City Hall on it, and it's reminding me how strongly I feel about that one topic, possibly stronger than any other political ideal. Which is ironic, since one of the people I respect more than anyone, my grandmother, says that if she was to be an activist (which she isn't) the one issue she would fight is that one - on the opposite side as me.
